Namely the CRAV Campus, Desiderio Guzmán and Villa Los Radales. The paper describes urban-architectural principles present in these groups, their programs, types of housing, surface and materiality. Additionally, the devices of social control deployed in order to discipline workers in their living spaces are also described. These three developments were part of a larger industrial area that defined the manufacturing character of the metropolitan area of the city of Conception, constituting a housing area adjacent to the production facilities of the CRAV-Penco. Furthermore, they provided workers with living standards associated with modernity, through access to quality housing and multiple urban facilities that fostered the creation of the so-called refining family. The CRAV Campus operated as a closed site subject to greater corporate control than the other two groups analyzed. Currently, these housing complexes constitute a recognizable industrial district in the town and is part of its tangible and intangible heritage. El presente texto analiza los tres conjuntos habitacionales construidos por la Compañía Refinería de Azúcar de Viña del Mar (CRAV) en la ciudad de Penco, Región del Bío-Bío, considerados hoy patrimonio urbano, arquitectónico e histórico de dicha localidad: el Recinto CRAV, la Población Desiderio Guzmán y Villa Los Radales. Se describen los principios urbano-arquitectónicos presentes en estos conjuntos, así como sus programas, tipologías de vivienda, superficie y materialidad. Además, se describen los dispositivos de control social desplegados con el fin de disciplinar a los trabajadores en sus espacios de habitar. Estos tres conjuntos formaron parte de una zona industrial mayor que definió el carácter fabril del Concepción Metropolitano, constituyendo una zona habitacional adyacente a las instalaciones productivas de la CRAV-Penco. Además, proporcionaron a los trabajadores estándares de vida asociados a la modernidad, a través del acceso a viviendas de calidad y múltiples equipamientos urbanos que fomentaron la creación de la llamada familia refinera. Como elementos diferenciadores, se plantea que el Recinto CRAV funcionó como un recinto cerrado sujeto a un mayor control empresarial que los otros dos conjuntos analizados. En la actualidad, los tres espacios conforman un barrio industrial reconocible en la localidad y son parte de su patrimonio material e inmaterial.
